As we celebrate Mother’s Day today, it is with deep respect and gratitude that I honour the infinite contributions of mothers across the globe, and in particular, the Land of the Brave.
Today provides us with a vital opportunity to reflect on the endless love, sacrifice, and resilience that define the essence of motherhood.
On this special day, we are reminded of the countless sacrifices and contributions of mothers who have shaped our lives and society.
From the devoted caregivers who sacrificed their own ambitions to prioritise the needs of their children, to the trailblazing industry leaders who have shattered barriers and paved the way for a brighter future.
Today, we stand in awe of mothers for their pliability and their capability to take on the world while being nurturing, soft, and caring.
A wise man once said: “When you stand with the blessings of a mother and God, it doesn’t matter who stands against you.”
As we celebrate our love and appreciation for the mothers in our lives today, let us hold onto this quote and be embraced in the blessings of our mothers.
Let us also recognise that this Mother’s Day is a time to honour the memory of those who are no longer with us, and to extend our support and compassion to those who may be experiencing loss or hardship.
Together, let us take hold of this opportunity to express our deepest gratitude to the mothers who have shaped our lives, and to reaffirm our commitment to building a brighter, more compassionate future for all mothers and Namibians at large.
Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers!
